Lombardozzi leading off, Morse hitting fifth
By Dan Kolko
Steve Lombardozzi wasn't in the Nationals' lineup yesterday. But after rain washed out the opener of this three-game series with the Braves, Lombardozzi is back in the leadoff spot and playing left field for Davey Johnson today.
Michael Morse will hit fifth today against Braves righty Brandon Beachy, with the left-handed-hitting Adam LaRoche staying in the cleanup spot.
Strangely, the Braves will hit Beachy eighth today, with left fielder Jose Constanza batting ninth.
Here are the lineups for both teams:
